TIL that over 75% people in India have #VitB12 #deficiency & most commonly those on a #vegetarian diet. Yet so little awareness. Even GPs barely go there. And it's one of the most annoying deficiencies with serious & strange (literally neuropathy!) symptoms.

De coverstory van het Pharmaceutisch Weekblad deze week (PW11) over Vitamine B12 tekort, gebaseerd op interviews met Jacqueline Postma en mij.
Onze boodschap: “Laat je leiden door het verhaal van de patiënt” en “Behandel de klachten en niet de labwaarden”.

The importance of vitamin B12 for individuals choosing plant-based diets - European Journal of Nutrition

Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that is not made by plants; consequently, unfortified plant-based foods are not a reliable supply. Recent estimates suggest high rates of vitamin B12 deficiency among the vegetarian and vegan populations, particularly in pregnant women or women of child-bearing age who, for ethical and health reasons, are shifting towards higher consumption of plant-based foods in ever-increasing numbers. Vitamin B12 plays crucial metabolic roles across the life-course and in particular during pregnancy and in early development (first 1000 days of life). Evidence now implicates vitamin B12 deficiency with increased risk to a range of neuro, vascular, immune, and inflammatory disorders. However, the current UK recommended nutrient intake for vitamin B12 does not adequately consider the vitamin B12 deficit for those choosing a plant-based diet, including vegetarianism and in particular veganism, representing a hidden hunger. We provide a cautionary note on the importance of preventing vitamin B12 deficits for those individuals choosing a plant-based diet and the health professionals advising them.

@muldutch #SundayPixYellow #Snap but not pernicious anaemia. My grandfather died of it the year before they discovered #VitB12 worked. Keep well!
